We've rescheduled for the 17th, for those interested.

Starting around 10 until ? You're more than welcome to join us. Look for the guy with the big Domke bag.

For those who are contemplating joining us at Udvar-Hazy this Saturday, there's a one-day-only display of a KeyHole reconnaissance satellite outside in the parking lot.

Fun Meet Up at the A&S Space Annex yesterday. Had fun with Ken (KRB), Suzie (SuzyView), and Jon (Jon). Got to test some new (to me) lenses and have a long and fun conversation with some really awesome POTN photographers :-)

Loved seeing all of you. I miss getting together. Between all of us, we had a lot of gear.

My two that I wanted to share. The first is the 24-70 on the 5D2. Second, at a similar spot with the 8mm fisheye. Which is a more interesting shot?

One or three . . .
NRO has released everything you could ever want to know about it (except the price, the resolution and the active CIA officers involved) at http://www.nro.gov/foia/declass/GAMBHEX.html

Whole thing - film recovery pods on the part at the near end; camera is just where it widens out and the thick end that goes all around is the control unit and feed reels.

This was the separate "mapping camera" that was only on some of the satellites.

Thanks Jon and KRB, I wonder if it takes Kodak CTM-4 film stocks. They come in rolls of 100' and is 42" wide (And is completely fun to shoot). I'm going to have to look it up.

Sort of depends on when someone sees something they call to everyone's attention. Sometimes (like with the Keyhole at Udvar-Hazy) there's not a whole lot of lead time.
